scaling the castle
The rules state that a robot has scaled the tower if it has the lowest portion of it's bumpers above the low goal at the conclusion of the match. It does not state that it has to remain there for any period of time after the end of the match.
Can anyone confirm that the robots do not need to remain on above the goal after the match for any period of time? Thanks |
Re: scaling the castle
Not sure on the actual rule number just that they have to remain there for enough time for the refs to know for sure that your robot has in fact climbed the tower. I.E. it is clear enough that your robot has indeed gotten its bumbers above the low goal.

Re: scaling the castle
The final assessment of ROBOTS having SCALED or CHALLENGED the TOWER is made five (5) seconds
after the ARENA timer displays zero (0), or when all ROBOTS have come to rest following the conclusion of the MATCH, whichever happens first so maybe you also want to make sure your robot will not roll back down the ramp if you are challenging the tower |

one could argue it has not come to rest if it is slowly creeping down
